I am the king of the dead

Different from the local officials in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guizhou, all Tatar officials who were given Han names and titles lived in the capital, and were at the disposal of Ming Dynasty at any time, which was equivalent to the title of Daming, so there was no need to worry about General Hu rebelling like the Anshi Rebellion.

Zhu Qiyu was about to write down his name, and he was puzzled and said, "Did the secret fire fighter mention the treatment of all the tribe members after surrender?"

According to the practice during the Hongwu period, the Tatars who took refuge, even ordinary people, would give a set of silk clothes, ten pieces of cotton cloth, one hundred ingots of banknotes, three stones of rice, two cows, five sheep, and five hundred catties of firewood. .

In the 21st year of Hongwu, Lan Yuerhai broke through the Northern Yuan court, and the resettlement fee was only banknotes.

In the years of Xuande and Zhengtong, because of the depreciation of precious banknotes, even the precious banknotes were not given.

As usual, Zhu Qiyu did not give any resettlement fees to those who came to attach him.

According to the fixed salary during the Jingtai period, Milihuo's own treatment is [-] shi, cotton, banknotes, silk, etc., and the silver coins are about [-] silver coins per year.

Yu Qian was silent for a moment, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was worthy of being the Minister of the Household Department, this clasped appearance was exactly the same as that of Shen Yi with his hands tightly stitched together, and he didn't give a single cent of the money that shouldn't be spent.

He thought for a while and said: "That's not true, it's all to be discussed, depending on the terms of Honglu Temple's negotiation, the minister will explain this matter to Ma Huan."

How could the emperor of Ming need to inquire about the details of this kind of negotiation?

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "Then let the surname be Xia, and the name is Zhiyi."

In the Altaic language family, Xiahapu mostly means a star, and it is indeed more appropriate as a bestowed surname.

Zhu Qiyu asked curiously: "Yu Shaobao, did the Garthlan you talked about send an envoy to Daming? Or did you receive any news?"

Yu Qian shook his head and said: "Also Milihuo, it's time to call him Xia Zhiyi. Xia Zhiyi came to Daming in person after Ke Qian's repeated persuasion to communicate with Ke Qian. Please seal the tribute."

"As for Garthlan, he has a very bad relationship with Daming. He harassed the caravans of Daming many times and harassed the town of Yingbaobian. Naturally, he would not send envoys, because sending envoys would also be punished and executed."

Zhu Qiyu had an impression of Ke Qian. He was originally the No. [-] scholar in Jingtai's second year, and later served as a scholar in the Hanlin Academy.

The number one scholar in the fifth year of Jingtai was Qiu Jun from Hainan who wrote "University Yanyi Bu".

Zhu Qiyu said with emotion: "Garthlan, the road is narrow."

Yu Qian laughed and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's words are very true."

Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian also had some communication on some issues concerning the Overseas Shipping Department, mainly around the establishment of the garrison and patrolling of the Shipping Department and the Inspection Department in Jeju Island.

Promised the King of Joseon to protect North Korea from Japanese pirates, so Daming naturally followed his word.

Jeju Island and Tsushima Island are important fulcrums of the Korean Strait. As long as these two fulcrums are taken down, the promise of military asylum to North Korea can be fully fulfilled.

At this time, the question arises, who will pay for the military salaries of the troops stationed on Jeju Island?

Zhu Qiyu's opinion is that in order to protect the garrison in North Korea from Japanese pirates, the money for the military brigade is naturally paid by the King of Joseon to the Ming court.

Yu Qian persuaded him with a few words of benevolence and forgiveness by saying that he should not do to others what he did not want, but in the end he was persuaded by His Majesty.

The reason His Majesty gave is very simple. Your Majesty is the Emperor of Ming Dynasty first, and then the King of Kings, Tian Khan and other emperors. Your Majesty wants to put the interests of Ming Dynasty first.

Garrisoning troops on Jeju Island is not a small burden. For the imperial court and the Ministry of Households, the budget is naturally to be saved if possible.

"Gao Liji can't give in, I won't want it, there is no shortage of maidservants in Tai'an Palace, how many times have the two North Korean envoys talked about Gao Liji's matter? If you say no, you can't." Zhu Qiyu paid tribute to Gao Liji Thank you for not being sensitive.

Gao Liji's looks are all selected from the best, and her etiquette has been specially cultivated. She is the same as Daming.

But he, the emperor's signboard, is not used to sell dancers, nor is it a dirty and dirty business platform for carnivores who occupy a position in North Korea.

Yu Qian thought for a while and said, "Actually, Your Majesty, the business of Gao Liji belongs to the king of Joseon Li Yu, that's why he cares so much."

It’s no secret that there are frequent exchanges between Ming Dynasty and North Korean merchant ships. The capital of North Korea is about 1900 miles away from the capital of the Ming Dynasty, while the distance from the capital of the Ming Dynasty to Nanjing is 1800 miles.

Therefore, the speed of dissemination of one or two things about North Korea is about the same as the speed of dissemination of Nanjing news.

Only then did Zhu Qiyu understand why the two envoys mentioned this matter repeatedly. He was very satisfied with the Shouyang Maharaja Li Yu. After all, Li Yu's ruling philosophy is to make great neighbors and all matters should be prioritized by the Ming Dynasty. .

"Then let North Korea continue to pay tribute, and send it directly to Prince Xiang's mansion. My uncle is the emperor's uncle, um, like this, it will not disappoint the king of North Korea, but also bestow the emperor's uncle, yes, Kill two birds with one stone." Zhu Qiyu made a decision.

Yu Qian said dumbfoundedly, "His Royal Highness King Xiang?"

Prince Xiang's Mansion has almost become the trash can of Tai'an Palace. For example, those Hailaer from the grassland, Gao Liji who paid tribute from North Korea, and some concubines who cannot be pushed have all entered the Prince Xiang's Mansion.

Yu Qian is the minister of the Ministry of War, and these matters are not under his control, but he is the Shaobao, the head of all officials, and it is in line with the regulations for His Majesty to let him handle these matters. This is Yu Qian, who is actually a prime minister, but not in the name of a prime minister.

Zhu Qiyu wanted to give Yu Qian the title of prime minister at the beginning, but in the end it was nothing.

Yu Qian said quite seriously: "The King of Joseon ceded Jeju Island to Daming, and he still hopes for a few things."

"One is to send generals to the Daming Maritime Hall to learn warfare techniques; the second is to form a joint navy with the Daming Navy to escort the Korean Strait; the third is to share information. Follow the Great Ming to fight."

Zhu Qiyu sneered, shook his head and said: "Then Li Yu looks pretty ugly, but he thinks pretty, what kind of spring and autumn dream is it at three o'clock in the afternoon! Don't agree to him."

Zhu Qiyu originally thought that Li Yu was just a drunkard who only knew about Gao Liji's business, but this was not the case for Li Yu, he thought too well, to train North Korean naval personnel, form a joint naval escort, and share information. One piece is more than one piece.

"North Korea and Jiannu have always been unclear. The Jurchen tribes in Jianzhou have many connections with North Korea. Even the Great Song Dynasty, which was weak in martial arts, also had a side of the couch. How can we allow others to snore? Why should I agree to North Korea? Conditions?" Zhu Qiyu still explained his reasons.

"Your Majesty is wise." Yu Qian bowed his head to take orders, and he also disagreed with this practice of raising tigers.

Although North Korea has always been relatively submissive, it was based on the tyrannical foundation of Ming Dynasty.

In the 14th year of orthodox civil engineering, the sky has changed, and the little prince of Joseon dared to stand up to the imperial decree and argue with the Daemyeon about the "Notes on Fan Guoyi". , the story of the farmer and the snake, Lu Dongbin and the dog.

"Where is Yingming?" Zhu Qiyu asked casually.

Yu Qian immediately said: "Your Majesty is determined and decisive, and can make big plans. He often uses four or two to pull a thousand catties, open and close like a god, encourages hard work, and is far-reaching. His meritorious deeds are very prosperous, so he is called wise."

Zhu Qiyu blinked at Yu Qian, and then remembered that Yu Qian was also a serious Jinshi. This kind of flattery can be said to come out of his mouth. He asked with a smile: "Seriously?"

Yu Qian replied calmly: "I am upright, never lie, and sincere."

Zhu Qiyu laughed three times, and didn't take it seriously. In his opinion, this is just Yu Qian's way of being a minister. Prepare some flattering words and deal with the emperor anytime and anywhere.

He said with a smile: "Okay, I haven't reached Ershun's age yet, so I don't need to talk about being obedient."

"Your Majesty... lead the decree." Yu Qian looked at His Majesty's long smile and sighed, what he said was true.

If you want to be a wise king, you must first be diligent in politics.

His Majesty sits in the lecture hall all day long, reviews memorials, inspects military horses every day, and does not slack off even in the rain and snow. Pin Yaopai went to Jiumen to observe the people's sentiments.

Moreover, His Majesty never likes to make great achievements, and is quite selfish, but only for Da Ming's selfishness, everything is done with Da Ming's interests first, and he is extremely cautious when he expects the enemy to be lenient.

If King Jili hadn't been very happy, how could he have personally conquered the civil fortress and caused a catastrophe?

Your Majesty is particularly specialized in financial affairs. Since the new monetary policy of the Ming Dynasty, the wealth of the Ming court has been accumulating at an incredible speed.

Some people always say that your majesty is the king of subjugation, but Yu Qian thinks that your majesty is wise.

What he said was true, but His Majesty didn't believe it.

"Does Yu Shaobao want to play chess?" Zhu Qiyu stood up and asked.

Yu Qian also stood up and shook his head and said: "Is there a new map for the chessboard? If it is "Fighting Corruption and Catch Corruption", I will not be your majesty's opponent."

This is rejected.

Zhu Qiyu walked out of the imperial study and ran to the stables, saying, "Come on, let me show you my anti-corruption and arresting corruption, and call Wang Ao. I am not only good at corruption, but also good at arresting corruption."

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty had to take time out every month to observe the people's sentiments, and his seventh-rank official position of managing and discussing government affairs was not a vain name.

Recently, he discovered a den of thieves. If he started from this den of thieves, he would definitely gain a lot.

Zhu Qiyu has self-knowledge, he knows his own fishing skills, so he is going to tell this fish nest to Wang Ao, a young anti-corruption expert.

Wang Ao soon joined His Majesty, headed towards Dongcheng, and stopped outside the Gongyuan.

Zhu Qiyu stopped the horse, got off the horse and stood still, pointing to the three streets of the Gongyuan and said: "The house in the three streets can be sold for a minimum of 11 silver coins, and a maximum of nearly [-] silver coins, and the sale must be guaranteed by a broker-comprador. "

"Expensive has its advantages."

"Did you see that over there? Mengxue Private School, there are a total of twelve private schools, and the teachers are at least from the Imperial Academy, at least from the same Jinshi background."

"There are three schools over there. The teachers in the school are at least the five classics doctors from the Hanlin Academy."

"360 steps to the east is the three major academies of the capital, tsk tsk, I still know a few of the chiefs of the three major academies who offer sacrifices to wine, and they are all lecturers from the Hanlin Academy. School classes."

Zhu Qiyu has been wandering here for a while, and he dare not say he knows everything about this place, he can only say that he knows everything about it.

Only then did Yu Qian and Wang Ao realize that His Majesty is really here to fight and arrest corruption, and he was well prepared.

Zhu Qiyu stood with his hands behind his back, and said: "If the two lovers have children, they will graduate from Mengxue, Confucianism, Academy, Guozijian or Women's Hall directly here."

"Sometimes I think, these lecturers are dignified fifth-rank officials in the capital. Those who give lectures to me naturally need not say much about their status. Can you impress them with just money?"

"I don't think so."

Yu Qian and Wang Ao glanced at each other, His Majesty's question had a preset answer, and they didn't need to answer it.

Only the real dignitaries can make the lecturers condescend.

The lecturers are neither big nor small, they are the fifth grade, this is a watershed, in the emperor's big banquet, only the fourth grade and above can be seated.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "I have a deep understanding of this place. There is not a single house in these three streets that is unclean, and they are all clean!"

"No one in Tingwenwu has a house here!"

"All the households are held by brokers and compradors. The people who live here are not registered and registered. It is so expensive that even I pay attention to it."

"I rebuilt the big and small Yongfang into an official residence, and specially transplanted garden trees from Longevity Mountain. If you don't want to live in a good official residence, then live in a prison!"

"Wang Ao, I will leave this fish nest to you."

Chapter 642 Eighty Spinning Wheels

The reason why Zhu Qiyu didn’t fish himself was because he was afraid that the fish would run away. He had too many times in the air force. This was not a technical reason (exactly) but because he was the emperor. If you can't get it, it's better to let Wang Ao fight it.

In fact, Wang Ao has been doing very well, doing his best in the fight against corruption.

The anti-corruption and anti-corruption efforts need to be coordinated with the campaign to eradicate crime and evil, and the effect will be better.

Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian went to Qin Tianjian. The Ten Great Calendar Bureaus brought Zhu Qiyu a lot of surprises. They even made soil and chemical fertilizers, that is, composting cow dung or using human urine. It was ammonia fertilizer, and the effect was about Equivalent to ammonia.

Going to the Qin Tianjian is a disguise. As the emperor, he often goes to the Qin Tianjian for inspection. The Qin Tianjian is just opposite the Gongyuan, so it is very reasonable for him to appear near the Gongyuan.

Zhu Qiyu said as he walked: "I heard that even the total fees of the two Zhejiang merchants should be used as a reference. Didn't he abandon Confucianism and go into business? This is back again?"

As the emperor, he knows the movements of a businessman. The main reason is that Fei Yiying's help to Yuan Bin, Yue Qian and others in Wa Kingdom cannot be ignored. Officials are also needed.

In particular, merchants are better at how to treat Japanese people like cattle and horses.

The literati of the Ming Dynasty were unwilling to go to a barbaric place like the Wa country, and only profit-seeking businessmen would go there.

Fei Yeying, as the General Chamber of Commerce of the Huaihe River and Huaihe River, made explorations in jointly going to sea with the imperial court and gaining benefits for the Ming Dynasty, and achieved phased results.

Therefore, after Fei Yiying was imprisoned, Zhu Qiyu forgave him because of his contribution to Daming. Of course, Fei Yiying's business of splitting the shares of Merchant Shipping and subscribed for funds was not a crime in essence, let alone violated Daming. law.

Zhu Qiyu knew that Fei Yiying had entered Beijing, but he didn't know much about his situation. He didn't know that Fei Yiying had been abandoned by Wei Guogong Xu Chengzong, and that both the Patriarch and the Shang Zong had lost their positions.

Yu Qian knew very well, and gave a brief overview of Fei Yiying's situation.

"I guess Fei Yiying figured out what he wanted to get the honor this time. Otherwise, at this time, Fei Yiying should start anew in Zhejiang instead of taking the exam in the capital." Yu Qian rarely said for Fei Yiying Good word.

Wang Ao listened quietly, this was a conversation between the emperor and the minister of humerus, how could he have the opportunity to hear this in the past?

You can't hear it even if you spend money.

Zhu Qiyu nodded, Fei Yiying really wanted to start a new business, it was not difficult, even without the support of Duke Wei, Fei Yiying was still a very smart businessman.

If you are afraid of embarrassing Wei Guogong and Henglin Fei, you can go to Guangdong.

The Guangzhou Shipping Department is in the ascendant, and Fei Yiying will go to the Guangzhou Shipping Department to develop. There is a lot to do, so he splits the shares and subscribes for the funds. Zhu Qiyu also believes that Fei Yiying can get up.

But Fei Yiying still came to the capital and took part in the imperial examination.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the Hanlin and Tai students coming in and out of the Guozijian and the Hanlin Academy, and said helplessly: "I found out that the Guozijian is a fish nest because I wanted to learn about the operation of the Gongyuan and pay attention to the election of the Ming Dynasty." You get a scholar, but when you look at it, you can see the luxurious houses in these three streets."

"I have been staring at this fish nest for a long time, and I even asked Xing'an to send someone to buy a house. Unfortunately, they are not qualified."

Not qualified, because buying a house here requires social status, specifically, at least above the fourth rank of Tingwenwu, or the World Lord of Wuxun.

Zhu Qiyu really came to observe the people's sentiments, and it was a surprise to find the fish nest.

Yu Qian shook his head and said: "I haven't paid attention to this matter, and the broker comprador will not ask me to buy the house here."

The broker comprador went to Jiuzhongtang to buy Yu Shaobao, which was almost equivalent to standing in front of the Zhenfusi Yamen, shouting that he wanted to assassinate the king!

"The family affairs of the Ming Dynasty are managed by the clan of the Ming Dynasty. Because the vassal king is the vassal, the functions of this family affairs are gradually transferred to the Ministry of Rites. Now that the vassal king returns to Beijing, the affairs of the family affairs are gradually restored. I am thinking about it. Shouldn't Spyjue be taken care of together?" Zhu Qiyu mentioned a possibility.

It was Zhu Qiyu's consideration to bring Spyker into the management of the clan's mansion. Daming did not have an institution dedicated to managing Spyker, so Spyker's education reflected the unevenness of the world.

Zhang Mao, the youngest son of the British public Zhang Fu, entered the lecture hall at the age of nine, graduated with excellent grades in three years, went to Kaiping to guard the border at the age of 15, and started to fight in the battlefield at the age of 16. The list of Shi Heng's suppression of bandits in Daningwei was obtained by Zhang Mao who went deep into the captive camp to investigate the enemy's situation.

But on the other hand, Huichang uncle's house, the queen mother's relatives, conspired to rebel, and ended up beheaded. Yang Hong's eldest son, Yang Jie, inherited Changping Marquis by virtue of his father's preference, and was also deprived of his title and returned it to Yang Jun. .

This is not surprising.
